Are you suggesting that the YT recommendation algorithm is some how flawed? I hope you're doing that on a throwaway account ;P

Is it possible that it doesn’t serve YTs interests to have a recommendation engine that works best for the end user?

I honestly think they just experiment with it a lot. The variety of videos that are recommended for me don’t seem to follow a pattern.

Maybe they know my brain better than I do.

100% absolutely it is similar to Goog's search

Possibly, but I'd posit that it's not a good system if the experiment is causing a lack of consistency. I'm sure there's a lot of people that would opt-in for a exeperimental reco system if just asked.

Now you're just being silly.

Is this a jab at dang?

dang was not a thought in my mind when I replied, so if there's any inference to dang by you in my comment, it is solely within your reading of the comment.

however, out of curiosity, what in my comment makes you think that?

I see. No, that was more so of the swarming vs staff management, but I can see how it wasn't so out of left field now.

They said YT, not YC.

This makes even more sense at the confusion.

It's not recommended because it hasn't been updated in years.. the algorithm promotes channels with updated content higher
